Taking #7 in its second week, “King & Queen & Joker” from Sexy Zone sold 10,854 to boost its total to 161,440. That’s a bit on the weak side compared to first week sales, but not bad considering their other recent singles.

At #9, Arashi’s “GUTS!” saw 9,909 copies sold this week to bring its four-week total to 569,077.

Johnny’s WEST’s “Ee ja nai ka” actually gained a few spots in its sixth week, ending up right behind Arashi at #10, selling 9,596 to get its total to 300,542 after five weeks.

That wasn’t the most spectacular rise, though. Nakayama Yuma-kun must have had something going on, because his “High Five” went from #150 to #17 in its eighth week, tacking on 6,234 to its total to finally cross the 50k mark. Its total is now 52,372.

“Mirai to wa?” from SKE48 had a similar rise – giong from #121 to #20 by selling 5,516 so that it could finally cross 500k – it now boasts a ten week total of 502,202 copies sold.

Rounding out the singles, week three of sales for Momoiro Clover Z’s “Naite mo Iin da yo” took it to #30 with 3,707 copies sold and a total of 79,637.

On the album side, Inaba Koshi-san of B’z saw his album “Singing Bird” sell 78,196 copies to take the top spot.

That was just barely enough to prevent the soundtrack to Frozen from taking #1 again. It settled for #2, selling 77,698 in its fifteenth week to bring its total to a whopping 652,629.

Maybe I can help Actually that’s not the first part of the high five event that got delayed, but the last cities I think… Nagoya for example happened on the 11th of May

You have to buy the single at the event, because the ticket is on it. Only one CD per person and it s cost 550yen for the special venue one ( but you can choose to buy any other version anyway, they have them all they will be at normal price not 550yen).

That week, he was at Sapporo and Fukuoka. When the girls got attacked, the fan event in Sapporo ( and therefore sales) already happened the day before and Fukuoka either was already finished or was finishing

That s why they could be counted The only remaining High five events were this weekend, yesterday in Sendai and today in Hiroshima.

That aside, this is really weird to have such CD events all around Japan ( and they sure do make him move a lot…Sapporo one day, Fukuoka the next ? XD) oO JE never did that, either…And it s not even for 1st weekly sales( since CD came out in April, I mean). It was really to celebrate his second single.

Feels like a solo debut, a real one, without the name.

Ugh, I was disappointed by AKB single. I don’t usually like the senbatsu one, but here I really don’t like it much. Both PV and song.

And one of the girls that got attacked was Kawaei Rina-san (Konno Kaede from the original SHARK series) right? I was really shocked about that.

Well, if Johnny’s thinks CD events will help with sales, I guess that’s what they’ll do. Clearly, this is leading to a solo debut – that was pretty much a given now that NYC is no longer active and Johnny’s West debuted without Yuma-kun part of it.

I’m rarely a fan of AKB48 songs in general, so I just shrug off the results. The only time I like the songs is when they’re a bit edgy (like “UZA”).
